Hi everybody, I'm Dr. Trevan Hatch. In this podcast, I explore the Jewish context of the New Testament (especially the Gospels) and the Jesus traditions. I look at the Jewish elements in Jesus' teachings, how the authors of the Gospels utilized the Hebrew Scriptures as they composed their Gospels, what early Jews thought about a "messiah," and a host of other aspects of Jesus' Jewish world. I plan to post one new episode every week. You can also access these episodes on YouTube with visual aids: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtxAhHk24wrfPzFrMrNxcLA

In this video I discuss what we know and don’t know about physical characteristics of Jewish males at the time of Jesus? What did Jesus look like? Long hair, short hair, long beard? How tall was he? I also discuss why this issue matters.
I review how Jesus has been depicted at various points throughout history, and how these depictions are shaped by theology and vice versa.
